Element RC Enduro Trail Truck Builder's Kit
1/10 scale · crawler · 40102
Element's Enduro Trail Truck Builder's Kit is a 1/10 four-wheel-drive crawler chassis kit, built by you and sold without motor, pinion, electronics, body, wheels or tires.
The 87T 48P spur feeds a Stealth X gearbox with the front axle overdriven, so the overall ratio comes down to the pinion and motor you choose. The shocks come with 30 wt oil, and the axles take 12 mm hex wheels. Pick the body and tires together, since the tire size decides how fast the truck crawls on whatever pinion you fit.
Weigh each corner to balance the chassis, then work out reduction and axle overdrive.

Stock is as the vehicle ships. Calculated is worked from the stock figures on this page rather than stored beside them, so the two cannot drift apart. Not applicable means the vehicle does not come with it, like the motor on a roller or the tires on a race kit, or does not have one, like a KV rating on a brushed motor.

Tooth counts are the ones in the specifications above. Pitch is given as metric module (Mod 1, Mod 0.8) or diametral pitch (32P, 48P). They are different standards and are not interchangeable, even where the numbers look close. Bore is the pinion’s hole, listed separately from the motor shaft. Linked part numbers go to the maker's or official distributor's page for that part.
How these numbers were settled
The kit ships without motor, pinion, ESC, servo, receiver, body, wheels or tires; Element lists a 540-size motor with a 48-pitch pinion, wheels with 12 mm hex mounting and tires among the items needed to complete it.
- Element's spec table prints 'Internal Gear Ratio: varies' because the Stealth X gearbox turns the front and rear axles at different speeds, so the transmission and axle ratio and the final drive are left blank.
- The manual names an 87T 48P spur (#9654), machined Factory Team Stealth X gears, a fixed 20T-28T-52T front train with the 27T-53T rear pair fitted (5.7% front overdrive), and 30T/8T ring and pinion gears in both axles.
- Those work out to about 9.75:1 after the spur at the front and 10.31:1 at the rear; the included 26T-54T rear pair (11.83% overdrive) gives about 10.90:1 at the rear.
- The manual's build shows an 18T pinion (#1336) marked 'Not Included'.
